It tells the story of two minor characters from Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are two childhood friends of Hamlet who are tasked, by the king, to learn what’s wrong with Hamlet. It is the witty, hilarious tale of two best friends, actors, princes, and death.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame - May 11-13, 2018Directed by Julianna Garber

Based on the 1831 Novel by Victor Hugo, this re-interpretation of the classic Disney film The Hunchback of Notre Dame begins as the bells of Notre Dame sound through the famed cathedral in fifteenth-century Paris. Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer who longs to be "Out There," observes all of Paris reveling in the Feast of Fools. Held captive by his devious caretaker, the archdeacon Dom Claude Frollo, he escapes for the day and joins the boisterous crowd, only to be treated cruelly by all but the beautiful gypsy, Esmeralda. Quasimodo isn’t the only one captivated by her free spirit, though – the handsome Captain Phoebus and Frollo are equally enthralled. As the three vie for her attention, Frollo embarks on a mission to destroy the gypsies – and it’s up to Quasimodo to save them all.
